    Season of the Witch - Casting Cage Ep 49 - Bucky's Basement Podcast

    Two Crusade Bros have had enough of the Holy Land — too much sun, too much guilt, too many swords in too many people. They desert, wander back to Europe, and find the whole continent has gone janky.    Plague everywhere. Crops dead. Vibes: rancid. Hair: surprisingly good. The culprit? A witch. Obvs.   When has a woman ever not been responsible for a continent-wide supernatural catastrophe? Classic.   So our boys get voluntold to escort this alleged witch to a monastery, where some monks will presumably sort it all out with prayers and vibes. Along the way: moral ambiguity, crew drama, and enough medieval atmosphere to make you grateful for antibiotics.   Oh, and everyone has American accents. Make of that what you will. Some have called it a bold subtext on the American military-industrial complex. Most have called it a choice.   Now — the twist. She's not a witch. She's a demon. A green demon. With an Eastern European gangster accent. Because nobody had ever done that before, and honestly, after watching this movie, you'll understand why.   The cast is genuinely stacked — Nic Cage, Ron Perlman, Christopher Lee, Claire Foy, Stephen Graham — all doing their best in a film that is not repaying that favor.   Will they make it to the monastery? Will the demon's accent hold up? Is green the right color for evil? Only one way to find out...   Because nobody does Cage like we do. Only on Bucky's Basement.

BUCKY (yelling back inside) IT’S ANOTHER ONE OF THOSE FLAMING BAGS! From deeper in the studio: OLDBOY Don’t put it out with your boots!     Too late.

Bucky recoils in horror. BUCKY AWWWW MAAAN! WE GOT TURTELTAUBBED AGAIN!! CUT TO BLACK.

    Snow Yogurt & Green - Feat Lisle Jones - Fast Pitch 43 - Bucky's Basement

    The Sack has spoken, and this week it delivered something truly unprecedented: Snow Yogurt and Green. You read that right.   Joining us in the studio is special guest and Nashville comedian Lisle Jones, making it a four-pitch showdown for the ages. Casts, Movie Marriages, Taglines — all built from the ground up with backs against the wall and absolutely no dignity to spare.   And somehow, through the beautiful chaos of it all, a common thread emerged: the artist Snow. Yes, that Snow. "Informer" Snow. A licky boom boom down.   Nobody plans it. Nobody can explain it. That's just what happens when the Sack is in charge.   Same title. Four movies. Zero dignity. Always unique. Always fresh. In 15 minutes or less.   Only on Bucky's Basement.

    Bad Lieutenant: Port Of Call New Orleans - Casting Cage EP 45 - Bucky's Basement

    Holy smokes, do we have a Casting Cage episode for you! This week, we review the 2009 Werner Herzog joint: Bad Lieutenant: Port of Call New Orleans. Nic Cage plays — you guessed it — a shady cop. How shady, you ask?    Let's see. He dates a prostitute. He breaks nearly every law. He does ALL the drugs. There's nothing that will get in his way and nothing he won't smoke (except cigarettes — go figure) to help close the case. So does that, technically, make him a good cop with some bad habits? We discuss.     With a hell-yeah cast, an awesome director, and Nic Cage fully unleashed, BL:PoCNO is something to behold. Plus — there's lizards. Wtf is up with all the lizards?!   Put your hands on the wall and get ready for a shakedown. Because nobody does Cage like we do. Only on Bucky's Basement.
